Floyd Garrett, Muscle Car Museum

[glhcarl]

If any of you are in the Sevierville, Tennessee area be sure and stop by the Floyd Garrett Muscle Car Museum. Lots of nice cars and admission was only ten bucks. Here are a couple of the Road Runners.

thanks Carl! If I ever get down that way, I'll stop for sure.

Some non-Road Runners:

I've never been able to stop in but I've been by it 3 or 4 times. Cool place.

And they had this real beauty.

:lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:
A cousin of mine had a '70 Chevelle SS 396 in Turquoise with the black stripes and a black interior. It was a very nice looking car. He had a car load of people with him one night (4 or 5 in the car altogether) and came up against a lone guy in a '69 road runner. The road runner beat him - he wasn't too pleased. :cool:

I fell in love with this car. Its not a Mopar but I really wanted one just like it when I was 17 and heard the Beach Boys sing "She's Real Fine My 409"

I really want to go there. I hear its awesome. Thanks for sharing, I would love to see all the pics you took by the way no matter what brand. So post away. Now that I know that it has a VERY rare red Chevelle I need to go immediately! :lmao:

Great Pics! Thanks for sharing, Carl.

Man, I just love those old Polyglas GTs on an old musclecar...they just look right...of course how can you go wrong with a Duster 340...???

The red Runner with the silver/black interior looks like a neat combo...and I'll bet the blue one is the one used in the opening scenes of the American Musclecar TV series...

A red shovel with black stripes...who'dathunkit...???

A buddy of mine that is big into the chebbies told me several years ago that a couple of the LS6 SS Chevelles that Floyd had in his collection were determined to be fakes...seems even the big time collectors get the wool pulled over they eyes sometimes...and the high dollar chebbies are the easiest ones to do it with since the VIN doesn't tell you if it's a 307 2-barrel or a LS6... :leave:

:jester:

I would not want to be a high end chebbie collector! Without documentation who knows what it was. Pontiac lovers have PHS, Ford fans have the Marti report as well as some VIN indicators, then there are the mighty Mopars where we are probably the easiest to document. We still have to be careful though since there are some people out there looking to make a victim out of us.
